Planning for a Corporate Staff Retreat

Staff retreats and teambuilding

At least once in a year, the whole department or even company come together for a retreat. Time to relax, have fun and celebrate the successes. Time also to forge further, deeper bonds, more complicity and some camaraderie among staff

If you are planning for your next corporate staff retreat, below are the questions worth responding?

What is your budget?

Do you have one? Without any, your planning may take you around the world and back where you are.

First consider travel cost (flight, coach, ferry), then hotel, the F&B and activities

Use previous year events as a benchmark

Seek confirmation from your management so as avoiding putting too much work into non-practical solutions

What are your transport constraints?

How many of the participants can travel together? Use the same plane/coach?

Where will the participants come from physically? Do you need to plan specific pickups or transfers?

If you consider travelling by plane, have you check the available flight leading to your potential destination

What would you like to achieve out of your retreat?

You need to distinguish between your “business” objectives and your “people” objectives. Though they are well interlinked, they are yet different and worth a thought. If you need ideas or inspiration, click here to review OIA Business Achievement tool
